Today, CMS and WES students got a powerful dose of motivation from none other than Mike Conn — thanks to a Principal Grant from the Clinton Public School Foundation. 🌟🌪️
With energy, heart, and humor, he encouraged students to believe in themselves as they head into state testing. 💛
He reminded them that mindset matters: you’ll find what you’re looking for.
Huge thanks to CPSF for making moments like this possible. And thank you, Mr. Conn, for reminding our students that everybody can do good, but NOBODY can do the good you can do, the way you can do it. 👏

It’s with mixed emotions that we announce Superintendent Tyler Bridges accepted the role of Superintendent at Stillwater Public Schools earlier today and will officially step into his new role July 1. While we will truly miss his leadership, we are incredibly thankful for his dedication to our students, staff, and the Clinton community. 👏
From guiding CPS through exciting capital improvement projects to consistently advocating for excellence in education, Mr. Bridges has left a lasting mark on Clinton Public Schools.
We wish him and his family all the best in their next chapter and know that he will continue to lead with vision, strength, and a heart for students. 💛
As we look ahead, we’re excited to begin the search for a new superintendent who will continue to build on our momentum and take Clinton Public Schools to the next level. 🌪️

Today is National School Librarian Day, and we’re overdue on saying THANK YOU to our amazing CPS librarians! 🤩
They help students find the right book (even when all they remember is "it’s blue"), keep the peace with a single well-timed shush, and know exactly where to find the answers to life’s toughest questions—like how to cite a source correctly!
Let’s give them all the bookmarks and appreciation they deserve! Drop a 👏 or 📖 in the comments to show Mrs. Manhart, Mrs. Ray, and Mrs. Stephens some love!
